Thanks a lot! The MP is at https://salsa.debian.org/gnome-
team/mutter/-/merge_requests/145 now.  The patch has been already tested
by our colleague (ianchang1).

I'll reformulate this issue into SRU.

** Description changed:

+ [ Impact ]
+ 
+  * When running glxgears with fullscreen on Intel Arrow Lake laptop, the
+ FPS can be dropped to 2/3 of display refresh rate, which should not
+ happen since glxgears has low workload.
+ 
+ [ Test Plan ]
+ 
+  * Find a laptop with Intel Arrow Lake CPU and use its integrated GPU
+ 
+  * Enter Ubuntu Desktop, ensure nothing else is running, open terminal and run
+    glxgears -fullscreen
+ 
+  * The FPS of glxgears reported in the terminal should be close to
+ display refresh rate
+ 
+ [ Where problems could occur ]
+ 
+  * This touches the screen refresh part of mutter in Wayland, therefore
+ if this breaks it could affect all systems using GNOME in Wayland.
+ 
+ [ Other Info ]
+ 
+  * We don't have other issue reported than glxgears e.g. fullscreen
+ gaming, however this can be an indicator to actual screen refresh issues
+ under such config.

  [Reproduce Steps]

  -fullscreen` on Intel Arrow Lake with integrated GPU
  
  [Expected Behavior]
  
  FPS should be close to the refresh rate of the display.
  
  [Actual Behavior]
  
  From the upstream report (with 75 Hz display):
  
  Running synchronized to the vertical refresh.  The framerate should be
  approximately the same as the monitor refresh rate.
  375 frames in 5.0 seconds = 74.992 FPS

  220 frames in 5.0 seconds = 43.953 FPS
  216 frames in 5.0 seconds = 43.157 FPS

- On noble with Intel Arrow Lake systems, glxgears FPS is much less than the 
panel refresh rate
